What about Pantheon?
It doesn’t appear that Tartakovsky was affiliated at all with Pantheon. I would have been surprised if he was affiliated given the show’s fairly mundane animation. So what about Pantheon? It doesn’t seem relevant to this discussion apart from it also being animated.

> Whenever I think of Tartakovsky I also think of his clone wars micro series he did for Cartoon Network. the episode with mace windu taking on an entire droid army - by himself - is what opened my imagination to the true potential that a jedi master has. it's a shame that neither the movies, nor any other tv show, have come close to conveying "why" everyone fears and respects force users.
> the episode with mace windu taking on an entire droid army - by himself - is what opened my imagination to the true potential that a jedi master has. As a kid, that was my favorite episode of the series first season. I still remember coming back after school catching the 5 minute micro-episodes on Cartoon Network. > it's a shame that neither the movies, nor any other tv show, have come close to conveying "why" ever…
this is a billion dollar idea. i wish i had the capital to get it off the ground, sigh.
> in many cases to the detriment of consistency in lore.
"Somehow, Palpatine returned" is the current state of the lore. it literally cant get worse, so why not have some fun?
Genndy Tartakovsky is a truly unique creator. Samurai Jack was so good, that I had to watch how it ends years later since watching the show on cartoon network
The star wars clone wars shorts are just amazing animation. The way he caught the essence of the characters in animation that was superior to the human portrayals was a testament to his talent. It made the cgi clone wars look so amateurish. The best sam jack imo is the light vs dark. My jaw dropped at that. He's definitely one of the few creators where I can feel him tickling my mind, overwhelming me with creativity.
Clone Wars was so fun. The episode with the special forces troopers that’s mostly silent immediately comes to mind, as well as the one where General grievous just goes to town on a group of surrounded Jedi. It was also pretty cool watching Mace force crush grievous‘s chest lol
Never got around to watching Samurai Jack but really should.

Dexter’s Lab as well. What a fantastic show.
It also produced some well-known cartoonists who went on to have very successful careers: most notably Seth MacFarlane, creator of Family Guy.
Tangential: does anyone know if there is a site that collects backgrounds from cartoons? Those would be gorgeous wallpapers.
Akuuuuu!

Maybe GP was thinking of Primal.
